The follow up is just straight up denial mixed with severe historical illiteracy. (BTW, I was talking about the Fugitive slave act of 1793 that passed in congress).

Colorado recently tried to actually ban slavery by passing a state constitutional amendment but the courts decided the people didn’t actually mean to ban slavery when they voted to ban slavery.
in California they put a slavery ban up for referendum and it failed to get a majority
The Colorado one barely failed the first time but passed with a 2:1 margin on the second try, then the court decided that it was only symbolic and didn’t actually apply to “prison labor”
